Violinist, composer, singer, and poet Sarah Bernstein visits the 'cast to discuss her career in music, her various on-going groups and projects, and her recording with percussionist Satoshi Takeishi, Crazy Lights Shining. The rest of the program explores various kinds of "experimental music," from drummer Rudy Royston's unusual front-line of bass clarinet and accordion to Thrainn Hjalmarsson's.. well, we aren't sure just what Thrainn was up to, but it sure was experimental.
